The Jean-Luc Ponty Anthology - "Le Voyage" (1996) by Richard.Drummer

Pra quem conhece é ótimo ter tudo do melhor em um só lugar e pra quem não tem ou conhece vai saber exatamente prq é um marco na história da musica mundial.

Tive de trazer assim que vi prq JLPonty representa pra mim uma época deliciosa na adolescência, Loja de Discos, cinema e fliperama aos sábados e nessas foi que ouvi pela primeira vez os acordes desse violino mágico e nunca mais parei.

Como disse ao Richard, simplesmente uma viagem linda à um lugar entre o real e o imaginário onde pude e posso aplacar um pouco das feridas causadas por uma jornada tão longa e cheia de batalhas.

Mas graças a fatos relacionados como este sempre foram lutas vencidas e as próximas tb o serão."Ponty has worked with Frank Zappa and John McLaughlin, has provided brilliant violin work as a session player, and has had a terrific run as a bandleader. This two-disc set dips into Ponty's Atlantic Records releases, tracing the development of Ponty's particular brand of jazz fusion and providing a very nice look at his career as a bandleader. A few of the cuts seem a bit watery and thin, but this has more to do with the original recording and mixing than the performances or mastering -- Rhino's mastering department has provided the usual quality of production here. Jean-Luc Ponty is a notable performer in the jazz arena, one who has a clear vision and strong ideals when it comes to his music -- he likes to test his boundaries and explore new possibilities. A notable collection. ~ Steven McDonald"
